"The Art of Crime Detection" is an interactive Web activity consisting of an introductory animation, two crime-solving scenarios, and an open-ended drawing tool. The two scenarios, the Toilet Paper Caper and Pushing Other People's Buttons, provides the student with an understanding of the differences between right brain and left brain processes, an understanding of visual images and vocabulary and their impact in providing descriptions, and understand how people look at the same situation as others but from a different perspective. The student uses the PDArtist, a PDA-type device that guides them through the process of using either side of the brain, or both sides simultaneously. Students can also use the PDArtist alone, as a creative tool for their own scenarios.

This virtual tour of a prison will give you a chance to see what happens when a man, woman or young offender is sent to prison. There are 139 prisons in England and Wales ranging from maximum security prisons to open prisons; it is worth remembering that no two prisons are the same. This means that although the tour will give users an idea of what prison is like, it wont be exactly the same in every prison. The buildings may be different, the facilities available may be different and some of the routines may be different too.
